Dry Lubricants

Dry graphite sprays and dry powder lubricants offer effective lubrication and protection for metal components in environments where traditional wet lubricants may be unsuitable. These products, often composed of fine graphite particles, provide a dry, non-oily coating that reduces friction and wear on surfaces subjected to high pressure and temperature fluctuations. Dry lubricants are particularly valuable in areas where exposure to dirt, dust, or extreme conditions, such as those found in landing gear mechanisms, control linkages, and door hinges, could cause contamination or failure of conventional lubricants. By forming a stable, long-lasting lubricating film, dry graphite sprays and lubricants help maintain smooth operation and reduce the risk of mechanical failure. Their use in aviation ensures the reliability and longevity of critical components while minimizing the potential for buildup or residue, which could impact system performance or lead to costly maintenance.
